Anyone else have to deal with an asshole who refuses to use the git repo? Not sure how much longer I can hold onto my sanity.

    @filthyranter @thiagoavadore oh I'd love to but the boss thinks he's the best ever, and the employee thinks he's adding worth to his name. But, the worried look on his face was priceless when his laptop got soaked in a rainstorm while he was on his motorcycle, and he couldnt mount the hard drive to recover his data. In the end he was able to recover everything, but he still didn't learn his lesson about version control and backups.

    How does his code get deployed anywhere?

    @linux-colonel that's the bigger wtf. Scp. So, there's no way to tell what version is in production on each server.

    Yeesh. Can you remove his access from the servers? Tell him the only way to deploy is by checking in to your scm

    @linux-colonel I wish I could but sadly his ego and management considers him to be a "senior" level developer. Did I also mention this is his first programming gig?

    I definitely wouldn't call someone who doesn't develop in line with teams' processes a senior. I feel your pain! Any way you can submit a dev/CI pipeline to management with figures on how it'll speed up development and/or save money?
